The patter of the rain combined with the dark curtain of the night.
Even assassins and thieves equipped with night vision struggled to see clearly around them.
On the muddy path, Tuck, who had entered "Shadow State," floated half a meter above the ground, holding a Nightmare Lantern to push back the darkness and the curtain of rain as he moved forward at an unhurried pace.
Now, as Tuck gradually mastered the Shadow State, let alone such muddy paths.
He could even float across nearby rivers with turbulent currents.
It's just that...
As he gradually entered the Shadow State,
Tuck began to hear more and more whispers and strange, indistinct growls from the Shadow Dimension.
Occasionally, the periphery of Tuck's vision would lose its color and then distort, writhing unnaturally.
When Tuck looked straight at it, everything would return to normal.
As if, the world in the corner of his eye was merely an illusion.
